1 Samuel 1:23; 1 Samuel 2:23; 1 Samuel 3:1; 1 Samuel 3:7; 1 Samuel 3:11; 1 Samuel 3:17; 1 Samuel 3:18; 1 Samuel 3:19; 1 Samuel 3:21; 1 Samuel 4:1; 1 Samuel 4:16; 1 Samuel 8:6; 1 Samuel 8:10; 1 Samuel 8:21; 1 Samuel 9:10; 1 Samuel 9:27; 1 Samuel 10:16; 1 Samuel 11:4; 1 Samuel 11:5; 1 Samuel 11:6; 1 Samuel 12:16; 1 Samuel 14:12; 1 Samuel 15:1; 1 Samuel 15:10; 1 Samuel 15:11; 1 Samuel 15:13; 1 Samuel 15:23; 1 Samuel 15:24; 1 Samuel 15:26; 1 Samuel 17:11; 1 Samuel 17:23; 1 Samuel 17:27; 1 Samuel 17:30; 1 Samuel 17:31; 1 Samuel 18:8; 1 Samuel 18:20; 1 Samuel 18:23; 1 Samuel 18:24; 1 Samuel 18:26; 1 Samuel 19:7; 1 Samuel 20:2; 1 Samuel 20:23; 1 Samuel 21:2; 1 Samuel 21:8; 1 Samuel 21:12; 1 Samuel 22:15; 1 Samuel 24:6; 1 Samuel 24:7; 1 Samuel 24:9; 1 Samuel 24:16; 1 Samuel 25:9; 1 Samuel 25:24; 1 Samuel 25:36; 1 Samuel 25:37; 1 Samuel 26:16; 1 Samuel 26:19; 1 Samuel 28:18; 1 Samuel 28:20; 1 Samuel 28:21; 1 Samuel 30:24

1 Samuel 1:23

23 “Do what seems best to you,” her husband Elkanah told her. “Stay here until you have weaned him; only may the LORD make good his word.” So the woman stayed at home and nursed her son until she had weaned him.

1 Samuel 2:23

23 So he said to them, “Why do you do such things? I hear from all the people about these wicked deeds of yours.

1 Samuel 3:1

1 The boy Samuel ministered before the LORD under Eli. In those days the word of the LORD was rare; there were not many visions.

1 Samuel 3:7

7 Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD: The word of the LORD had not yet been revealed to him.

1 Samuel 3:11

11 And the LORD said to Samuel: “See, I am about to do something in Israel that will make the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle.

1 Samuel 3:17

17 “What was it he said to you?” Eli asked. “Do not hide it from me. May God deal with you, be it ever so severely, if you hide from me anything he told you.”

1 Samuel 3:18

18 So Samuel told him everything, hiding nothing from him. Then Eli said, “He is the LORD; let him do what is good in his eyes.”

1 Samuel 3:19

19 The LORD was with Samuel as he grew up, and he let none of Samuel’s words fall to the ground.

1 Samuel 3:21

21 The LORD continued to appear at Shiloh, and there he revealed himself to Samuel through his word.

1 Samuel 4:1

1 And Samuel’s word came to all Israel. Now the Israelites went out to fight against the Philistines. The Israelites camped at Ebenezer, and the Philistines at Aphek.

1 Samuel 4:16

16 He told Eli, “I have just come from the battle line; I fled from it this very day.” Eli asked, “What happened, my son?”

1 Samuel 8:6

6 But when they said, “Give us a king to lead us,” this displeased Samuel; so he prayed to the LORD.

1 Samuel 8:10

10 Samuel told all the words of the LORD to the people who were asking him for a king.

1 Samuel 8:21

21 When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the LORD.

1 Samuel 9:10

10 “Good,” Saul said to his servant. “Come, let’s go.” So they set out for the town where the man of God was.

1 Samuel 9:27

27 As they were going down to the edge of the town, Samuel said to Saul, “Tell the servant to go on ahead of us”—and the servant did so—“but you stay here for a while, so that I may give you a message from God.”

1 Samuel 10:16

16 Saul replied, “He assured us that the donkeys had been found.” But he did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the kingship.

1 Samuel 11:4

4 When the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and reported these terms to the people, they all wept aloud.

1 Samuel 11:5

5 Just then Saul was returning from the fields, behind his oxen, and he asked, “What is wrong with everyone? Why are they weeping?” Then they repeated to him what the men of Jabesh had said.

1 Samuel 11:6

6 When Saul heard their words, the Spirit of God came powerfully upon him, and he burned with anger.

1 Samuel 12:16

16 “Now then, stand still and see this great thing the LORD is about to do before your eyes!

1 Samuel 14:12

12 The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, “Come up to us and we’ll teach you a lesson.” So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, “Climb up after me; the LORD has given them into the hand of Israel.”

1 Samuel 15:1

1 Samuel said to Saul, “I am the one the LORD sent to anoint you king over his people Israel; so listen now to the message from the LORD.

1 Samuel 15:10

10 Then the word of the LORD came to Samuel:

1 Samuel 15:11

11 “I regret that I have made Saul king, because he has turned away from me and has not carried out my instructions.” Samuel was angry, and he cried out to the LORD all that night.

1 Samuel 15:13

13 When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The LORD bless you! I have carried out the LORD’s instructions.”

1 Samuel 15:23

23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, he has rejected you as king.”

1 Samuel 15:24

24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned. I violated the LORD’s command and your instructions. I was afraid of the men and so I gave in to them.

1 Samuel 15:26

26 But Samuel said to him, “I will not go back with you. You have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you as king over Israel!”

1 Samuel 17:11

11 On hearing the Philistine’s words, Saul and all the Israelites were dismayed and terrified.

1 Samuel 17:23

23 As he was talking with them, Goliath, the Philistine champion from Gath, stepped out from his lines and shouted his usual defiance, and David heard it.

1 Samuel 17:27

27 They repeated to him what they had been saying and told him, “This is what will be done for the man who kills him.”

1 Samuel 17:30

30 He then turned away to someone else and brought up the same matter, and the men answered him as before.

1 Samuel 17:31

31 What David said was overheard and reported to Saul, and Saul sent for him.

1 Samuel 18:8

8 Saul was very angry; this refrain displeased him greatly. “They have credited David with tens of thousands,” he thought, “but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?”

1 Samuel 18:20

20 Now Saul’s daughter Michal was in love with David, and when they told Saul about it, he was pleased.

1 Samuel 18:23

23 They repeated these words to David. But David said, “Do you think it is a small matter to become the king’s son-in-law? I’m only a poor man and little known.”

1 Samuel 18:24

24 When Saul’s servants told him what David had said,

1 Samuel 18:26

26 When the attendants told David these things, he was pleased to become the king’s son-in-law. So before the allotted time elapsed,

1 Samuel 19:7

7 So Jonathan called David and told him the whole conversation. He brought him to Saul, and David was with Saul as before.

1 Samuel 20:2

2 “Never!” Jonathan replied. “You are not going to die! Look, my father doesn’t do anything, great or small, without letting me know. Why would he hide this from me? It isn’t so!”

1 Samuel 20:23

23 And about the matter you and I discussed—remember, the LORD is witness between you and me forever.”

1 Samuel 21:2

2 David answered Ahimelek the priest, “The king sent me on a mission and said to me, ‘No one is to know anything about the mission I am sending you on.’ As for my men, I have told them to meet me at a certain place.

1 Samuel 21:8

8 David asked Ahimelek, “Don’t you have a spear or a sword here? I haven’t brought my sword or any other weapon, because the king’s mission was urgent.”

1 Samuel 21:12

12 David took these words to heart and was very much afraid of Achish king of Gath.

1 Samuel 22:15

15 Was that day the first time I inquired of God for him? Of course not! Let not the king accuse your servant or any of his father’s family, for your servant knows nothing at all about this whole affair.”

1 Samuel 24:6

6 He said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed, or lay my hand on him; for he is the anointed of the LORD.”

1 Samuel 24:7

7 With these words David sharply rebuked his men and did not allow them to attack Saul. And Saul left the cave and went his way.

1 Samuel 24:9

9 He said to Saul, “Why do you listen when men say, ‘David is bent on harming you’?

1 Samuel 24:16

16 When David finished saying this, Saul asked, “Is that your voice, David my son?” And he wept aloud.

1 Samuel 25:9

9 When David’s men arrived, they gave Nabal this message in David’s name. Then they waited.

1 Samuel 25:24

24 She fell at his feet and said: “Pardon your servant, my lord, and let me speak to you; hear what your servant has to say.

1 Samuel 25:36

36 When Abigail went to Nabal, he was in the house holding a banquet like that of a king. He was in high spirits and very drunk. So she told him nothing at all until daybreak.

1 Samuel 25:37

37 Then in the morning, when Nabal was sober, his wife told him all these things, and his heart failed him and he became like a stone.

1 Samuel 26:16

16 What you have done is not good. As surely as the LORD lives, you and your men must die, because you did not guard your master, the LORD’s anointed. Look around you. Where are the king’s spear and water jug that were near his head?”

1 Samuel 26:19

19 Now let my lord the king listen to his servant’s words. If the LORD has incited you against me, then may he accept an offering. If, however, people have done it, may they be cursed before the LORD! They have driven me today from my share in the LORD’s inheritance and have said, ‘Go, serve other gods.’

1 Samuel 28:18

18 Because you did not obey the LORD or carry out his fierce wrath against the Amalekites, the LORD has done this to you today.

1 Samuel 28:20

20 Immediately Saul fell full length on the ground, filled with fear because of Samuel’s words. His strength was gone, for he had eaten nothing all that day and all that night.

1 Samuel 28:21

21 When the woman came to Saul and saw that he was greatly shaken, she said, “Look, your servant has obeyed you. I took my life in my hands and did what you told me to do.

1 Samuel 30:24

24 Who will listen to what you say? The share of the man who stayed with the supplies is to be the same as that of him who went down to the battle. All will share alike.”
